A friend is someone we turn to
when our spirits need a lift.
A friend is someone we treasure
for our friendship is a gift.
A friend is someone who fills our lives
with beauty, joy, and grace.
And makes the whole world we live in
a better and happier place.

Standing by,
All the way.
Here to help you through your day.
Holding you up,
When you are weak,
Helping you find what it is you seek.
Catching your tears,
When you cry.
Pulling you through when the tide is high.
Just being there,
Through thick and thin,
All just to say, you are my friend.

The Miracle Of Friendship
There is a miracle called Friendship
that dwells within the heart
and you don’t know how it happens
or when it even starts.
But the happiness it brings you
always gives a special lift
and you realize that Friendship
is God’s most precious gift.
- Jean Kyler McManus -
Friends will come and friends will go,
The seasons change and it will show,
I will age and so will you,
But our friendship stays, strong and true.
A Friend’s Greeting
I’d like to be the sort of friend that
you have been to me;
I’d like to be the help that
you’ve been always glad to be;
I’d like to mean as much to you
each minute of the day
As you have meant, old friend of mine,
to me along the way.
I’d like to do the big things and
the splendid things for you,
To brush the gray from out your skies
and leave them only blue;
I’d like to say the kindly things that
I so oft have heard,
And feel that I could rouse your soul
the way that mine you’ve stirred.
I’d like to give you back the joy
that you have given me,
Yet that were wishing you a need
I hope will never be;
I’d like to make you feel as rich as I,
who travel on
Undaunted in the darkest hours with you to
lean upon.
I’m wishing at this time that Icould but repay
A portion of the gladness thatyou’ve strewn along my way;
And could I have one wish this year,
this only would it be:
I’d like to be the sort of friend
that you have been to me.

Friends
There’s nothing as nice as someone who shares,
your laughter, your secrets, your wishes and cares,
someone who’s there through your good times and tears,
who stays by your side as your friend through the years.
